Why did you decide to come to Marist?
I decided to come to Marist because not only were the academic offerings of the school expansive enough to fit the needs of an undeclared major, but the beauty of the campus enticed me. Furthermore, the small and tight-knit community made me feel more at home than any other school I visited.

What did you most enjoy about going abroad?
I most enjoyed being put out of my comfort zone and being able to travel and immerse myself in a different culture every weekend.

What is your favorite memory from freshman year?
My favorite part of freshman year was definitely being able to form long lasting relationships with both friends and professors.

Do you have any advice for incoming freshmen?
Meet as many people as you can in your freshman dorm, and remember to give your roommates a chance. I became close friends and still live with both of my roommates that I shared a triple within Leo.
